One definite part of from the world of fashion in the 1920’s through today would be the little black dress. It is such a simple garment and color, yet it did not fail to create a long term trend. It is convenient for any occasion such as dinner, business event, and parties. It represents modernism, feminism, individualism, and class. The little black dress has a combination of logical form and sensuality for which this century has come up with the word “glamour.”
The birth of the “wonder dress” took place in Paris. Its creators were designers Jean Patou and Coco Chanel. Patou, a forerunner of Ralph Lauren provided the architectural line, while Chanel contributed that dash of risk. What I mean by that is that she made it black, which is the color worn by the maidservants of her couture clientele. Fashion consultants have for decades praised the little black dress as s slimming garment, as a bridge between day and evening wear, and as the ideal backdrop for accessories.
